Sorry to re-post, i would just like peoples opinions on this, i'm not sure how it happened, but what would you recommend to fix it, been quoted £100 from a couple of places, think i should just buy a touch up and have a go?

No touch up will look crap. It looks like metalic so i'd say £100 id a fair price. I did something similar to my GP (except it was exotica red). Resprayed the whole bumper my self with a perfect match for £50 which is including all the materials I didn't have .

Ok, by the way this scuff is not visable this is a photo from underneath the front bumper, £100 seems a bit steep, i'm sure a touch up and tcut will sort it?

Ahh its underneath the bumper. In that case i would try what you suggested will look Good enough I'd imagine.

It all depends how much it bothers you mate, if you can live with the finish (which im sure will be fine) then do it the cheaper way.

Thanks for the replies, yeah i'm sure i can live with it, i think fiat touch ups come with the paint and laquer so the finish should be ok, will just take my time and wet n dry it a bit first and tcut and polish it after.

If Fiat touch up pens are like halfords then you will get 3, primer, paint and laquer.

Defo not worth £100 if you cant even see the scratch, touchup pen will do the trick nicely imo.
